There is a saying that describes domestic car owners, "All day zero hundred acceleration zero hundred acceleration, a red light becomes a green light, 2.0t is as good as 0.2 self-priming." This sentence can be said to be very appropriate, because in the first row of vehicles that start at the traffic lights in China, the start is usually a slow and leisurely start, and it is not possible to pass a few rows of cars, and the green lights will turn red. There are also many car owners who play with their mobile phones when waiting for the red light, and wait until the green light is on to be urged by the rear car horn to remember to start, which greatly reduces the traffic efficiency.
Many people start slowly because they play mobile phones, and many people think that slow start is safer and more fuel-efficient, but some people say that it is better and safer to start "refueling" at intersections than "slow start", why do you say so? Slow start reduces traffic efficiency Imagine if every traffic light intersection, the first row of cars are slow start, or the owner of the mobile phone is urged to start, 10 or 20 traffic lights are so, how much traffic time will be added? The otherwise smooth section of the road will also cause a large backlog of cars, and the increase in vehicles on the road itself will increase the risk of accidents.
A slow start triggers road rage
There is a lyric in the red rose, "What is not obtained is always in turmoil, and those who are favored have no fear." The owners of the first row belong to the favored people, they think that I am the first row anyway, no matter how slow it can be, and then the people in the back row do not think so, the green light is short, you are still grinding and rubbing, it is likely that because the first row starts slowly, it will lead to waiting for the next traffic light. According to research, the slow start of the front car is an important cause of road rage.
Can a slow start really save fuel?
Many people believe in the principle that slow throttle can save fuel, because at the beginning, the throttle is more gentle than the wife on the wedding night, and the fear of stepping on the throttle is careful, but how much fuel can be saved by doing so? Even if you start slowly at every traffic light and drive 100km to save only a few tenths of a liter of gasoline, you are squandering not only your time alone, but also the time of you and a large number of ticket owners behind you.
Is it safer to start slowly?
We have the impression that it should be safer to start slowly through intersections. But according to data from the Independent Safety Agency's U.S. Insurers' Laboratory, European countries such as the United Kingdom and Germany, which advocate fast-paced start, score higher, but China has a lower safety score because of its slow start at the intersection. The Automobile Association, the British MotorIstarian Association, gave a safe driving reminder on the official website of the driving school. When starting at a traffic light intersection, raise the maximum speed limit on the road as quickly as possible to ensure safety and reduce congestion. This is because the first row of vehicles has a wide field of view, there is no accident caused by the blind spot of vision, and the front is open, there are no vehicles and pedestrians, the observation time is abundant, there is no reason to reduce the speed to ensure safety, if there is an accident in such a road situation, it is not a matter of speed, but this person is not suitable for driving at all.
Slow start doesn't hurt the car?
Chinese people driving are basically gentle driving methods, and even half of the power performance of the vehicle is not used, because the legend that gentle driving does not hurt the car, and I still believe in this set in 2019, I really don't know what to say. On the contrary, your slow start may lead to an increase in carbon deposits, and it may also bring about changes in the engine ECU, which will reduce the amount of fuel injection according to the driving style of the owner, and your car will be matched with you.
Finally, I would like to explain that even if you start fast, your speed of crossing the intersection will be much lower than the speed limit of the road, no one will let you start according to F1, no one will let you start every time you start, like zero hundred acceleration like the throttle to the end, just hope that the owner of the first row and other traffic lights will throw away the gentleness and caution of the newlywed wife, be bold, brave, and slightly improve the efficiency of the traffic, is it difficult?
